fourth entry ⊗ magical inquiries

Subject: Sealing and Teleportation Magic

I have two inquiries to those who are familiar with magic.

RE: SEALING MAGIC
I'd like to know if anyone knows a way to cast some kind of sealing or restraining magic on an accessory or item that could be used to suppress one's own magic or curse. If need a more specific situation, an emergency case where one's powers are running out of control and needs to be contained. The ideal goal would be that it could affect nightmare energy, but that might be more difficult without further knowledge.

[He is definitely asking for specific reasons, but good thing there have been several occasions where things went wildly out of control last month that it won't seem too random.]


RE: TELEPORTATION MAGIC
Similarly, I wish to create some kind of portal that would allow me to easily traverse between my home and other locations that I currently own with potential to add on in the future. [Because it's about time he just accepts he owns these dogs and getting to the Corgi Tree and the Flowers home more instantaneously would be ideal. Though already future proofing? What could he be considering...] Ideally it would be a door with a function to change the location.

This might be a complicated request, if it's even possible, but even just information on how it might work will be appreciated.

[He'll get his portal door one way or another—]

Thank you.

That would depend on what sort of form the wearer desires. A necklace or bracelet are common forms for such things.

I would make it as durable as possible, but it would be subject to the physical limitations of its form.

[refire]

Thanks, I'll let you know if I come across anything useful too.

Don't push yourself too hard.

[hearthwarming]

[ Her brow hitches up in surprise. ]

Huh… I hadn’t thought about trying that. Maybe I will, one of these days. Or at the very least emulating it so that I could take two-way trips, hehe…

[ The barking of corgis gets louder as they approach the house. ]

But, there you have it. Your quick demonstration of tree transportation! Next up is trying to teach you how to speak to animals, right?

[flamekthunder]

I can have those interested contact you, but would it be possible for you to make one regardless to test and have on hand? I'd also be curious how effective it could be against nightmare energy.

[Particularly if it's using a lot of dreamotion as part of it.]

[flamekthunder]

I should be saying that to you. Take it easy.

[shithogs]

Yeah, I know.

[Is it supposed to be a secret? Hell if she knows, not like she's big on gossip to begin with.]

Tifa and I are pretty good friends. It comes up.

[flamekthunder]

Yes.

[LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS MORE and as soon as he opens the door, out bound the stubby floofs, barking happily at them both.]

Hopefully it will be easier. [.....Ah.] I forgot to mention that when I was in that other world, I had learned magic that allowed me to speak with and transform into animals. Unfortunately I haven't been able to harness it as I did there, but at least within dreams I found it easier to utilize similar results with dreamotion.

[darkcharge]

That would be because they are, to a degree.

[flamekthunder]

Perhaps in your universe, but I highly doubt in mine at least.

[Look it's just hard to really believe okok.]

OH MY GOD MY HTML WHY DIDN'T YOU SAY ANYTHING

[flamekthunder]

She's been wanting to keep it somewhat secretive but I don't really care one way or the other.

[Although lately he would rather people know so pests don't bother her—

But they're friends, huh... Interesting.]

[refire]

I'll manage somehow without Shionne. She would always heal my wounds whenever I got hurt.

Do you know about anything that could generate healing properties while we're at it?

[flamekthunder]

I don't know about healing "properties" in a passive sense, but I did manage to learn how to use my dreamotion for healing magic, something I wasn't capable before.

[refire]

I never realized that dreamotion could be used that way.

If I'm being honest I'm not sure if I can make it through this or not but I have to try. Shionne's just that important to me. I promised to marry her someday so now it's just me and I suddenly find myself lost.

Other methods of healing might help in the mean time.

[flamekthunder]

[...

Reading those words, Eustace can't help but stop and think about what he would do if Tifa suddenly left. He's always told himself that he's "prepared" and "accepted" that inevitably, but what would he really do should the time comes?

...]

You're both from the same world, correct? That means that only this version of yourself is without her as you're still together over there. The moment you "wake up" from this world you'll find her right there with you.

Your grief is understandable, but you could try and remember that you will see her again. She's not dead nor will you be separated by being from different worlds.

[...........That last bit maaay have come out unintentionally and he might be feeling just a little bit bitter. It's like, yeah he gets it. At the same time, though...]

There are ways to heal yourself, such as potions, so you can also use those.

I AM AN AGENT OF CHAOS

[shithogs]

Figured she knows I'm not gonna spread it around. Not like I'm the gossip type. Wonder why, though. It's obviously a big deal to her.

[Especially given that she'd been so keen to see that Kainé herself had 'someone special,' too. For what little she does know, it's clear Tifa is real serious about Eustace.]

[hearthwarming]

Oh, hello, all of you!

[ When the door opens and out come the corgis, Ori immediately enters and sits down on the floor and lets them climb all over her. She's missed them for the last eight months! ]

I missed you all so much!

[ She hasn't even cast her spell to talk to them, she's just talking at them. But she's also so caught up in this wholesome reunion with the corgis that she nearly misses that Eustace is dropping some important information on her entirely. ]

—Oh! Really? That's amazing... Maybe you were a druid in that world. But it sounds like you're halfway there, Eustace. We just need to practice and maybe come up with some dreamotion exercises for you!

CRYING

[flamekthunder]

I think she's still shy about it. But then again, I never really saw the merit in publicly announcing anything except to keep pests away.

[flamekthunder]

Hmm, I hope so.

[He crouches down as he ruffles their ears and rubs a few bellies. He can hear them barking and sometimes he thinks he hears something, but...alas.]

I miss knowing what they say.

[or the secrets they may share]

1/2

[hearthwarming]

[ Funny you should mention secrets, because now is the time that Ori casts her animal-speaking spell. The gestures and the incantations would be familiar to Eustace, by now, and she casts a smile at him before she turns back to the dogs and says, ]

Your dad wants to be able to talk to you all. Wouldn't you love that?

[ The happy barking is enough to indicate, even without a spell, that they very much agree. But they continue to bark some more, and what they say seems to catch Ori off-guard— ]

2/2

[hearthwarming]

[ She turns to look back at Eustace with a quirked brow. ]

They said, "Where's mom?"

[flamekthunder]

[Eustace is oblivious—until Oriphi asks that question.

At first even he looks confused before his brows raise in comprehension.]

Ahh.......

[HMMMMM. He is eying the dogs for a moment, silent as he wonders how to answer. And then decides to just answer straight.]

They must mean Tifa.

[Simple and straight to the point without much fuss aside from that moment of contemplation. And now he braces himself for the questions—]

now everyone knows

[shithogs]

She's got a lot of admirers. Don't need to make a big announcement or anything, don't see the point in that, but being open about it might not be such a bad idea for keeping them at arm's length.

[removal]

The best would be to ensure that the keyboard and accompanying chair are at the right height for her to play. While pianos come in standard sizes, they do not correspond perfectly to every individual's sitting posture.

[ He's thinking about it from a more practical point of view. ]

Perhaps it could be decorated in the colours that she would consider most pleasant, yet not distracting her from playing.

[refire]

I'll have to start looking after myself more. I'm sure that's what she would have wanted from me.

Shionne...

We're from the same world but it's not that simple. Even within our own world I'm from a different time. What if I just forget everyone all over again?

I don't want to forget the promise I made. There's still so much that I have to do still. We have to keep fighting.

[flamekthunder]

Hmm...

[Colors... ... ..DOES HE KNOW HER COLOR PREFERENCES??? For a moment his brows furrow as he thinks. He sort of does, but now when it comes to something as important as this— He'll definitely have to think about it. And measurements... ...Is there a way for him to sneakily get height measurements? Maybe when she's sitting at the table chair???

He's so deep in thought that the air actually starts to feel stifling, a few swirling cracks forming at his feet.]
